When you read a newspaper, do you start with January 1 and work your way
up to today in June?  

Newsgroups have expirations as little as a couple days up to a more typical
few weeks.  And in a long running thread, the first post may or may not
be available, or it may be a few hundred posts ago.  

You appear to be posting from Japan, so perhaps bottom to top doesn't
seem so weird to you.  But it doesn't really work well with English
or other latin based languages because each portion is still top to bottom.
